  • Page 4: Overview

    Overview The RTC-72421/RTC-72423 module is a real time clock that can be connected directly to a microprocessor's bus. Its built-in crystal unit enables highly accurate time-keeping with no physical access required for adjustment and, since there is no need to connect external components, mounting and other costs can be reduced.

    RTC - 72421 / 72423 2. CD register (control register D) (1) HOLD bit (D0) Use the HOLD bit when accessing the S1 and W registers. For details, see "Read/write of S1 to W registers". HOLD bit The BUSY status can be checked. When the HOLD bits is 1 and the BUSY bit is 0, read and write are enabled. When the HOLD bit is 1, any incrementation in the count is held within the RTC.

    RTC - 72421 / 72423 *STD.P pin output IRQ FLAG bit The output levels of the STD.P pin are low (down) and open circuit (up). Note: If the STD.P pin output remains low as set, subsequently generated interrupts are ignored. In order to prevent interrupts from being overlooked, write 0 to the IRQ FLAG bit before the next interrupt is generated, to return the STD.P pin to high.
